HSEM is Now a Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador

​HSEM has been named a “Weather-Ready Nation” Ambassador by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador initiative is an effort by NOAA to formally recognize partner organizations who work to improve America’s readiness and resilience to extreme weather, water, and climate events. HSEM has long been a partner with NOAA and the National Weather Service (NWS) in strengthening Minnesota’s resistance and resilience to the hazards of extreme weather.

As a Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador, HSEM will be collaborating throughout the year with the NWS and other state and local agencies on communicating awareness and preparedness through the media and public events.
